How to make
-
STEP 1
Heat oven to 375°F. Place paper baking cups into 24 mini muffin pan cups; set aside.
-
STEP 2
Combine all crust ingredients in bowl. Firmly press about 1 rounded teaspoon crust mixture into bottom of each paper liner.
-
STEP 3
Combine all filling ingredients except egg in bowl; beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add egg; continue beating until well mixed.
-
STEP 4
Spoon 1 rounded tablespoon lemon mixture over crust mixture in each cup. Swirl tops with spoon. Bake 15-17 minutes or until puffed and set. Allow to cool 1 hour at room temperature. Refrigerate at least 2 hours or until serving time.
-
STEP 5
Garnish with dollop of pie filling and fresh mint leaves just before serving, if desired.
-
STEP 6
Store in container with tight-fitting lid in refrigerator up to 4 days.
Tip #1
- For best results, allow cream cheese and egg to come to room temperature before beating. This prevents lumps from forming in the tarts.
Tip #2
- The filling will settle and fall during chilling, creating a rich dense cheesecake filling.
Tip #3
- Place pie filling in disposable pastry bag fitted with tip or spoon into resealable plastic food bag with 1 corner cut off to pipe pie filling onto tops of cheesecakes.
Tip #4
- Each cheesecake can be spread with whipped cream and topped with a dollop of pie filling, if desired.
